To add, Danger 5 is amazing, Orphan Black doesn't get the praise it deserves, Futurama is often overlooked when it comes to cartoon comedy.

The type of person you'd HATE in real life but brilliant for a sitcom. I honestly believe she was pure evil but I just loved her.

The actress who played Laura is Russell Howard's sister, I was pretty surprised when I found out.

Arrested Development is underrated in the sense that it should be/have been bigger than what it is/was. Critically acclaimed and so, so original yet it still has quite a niche audience.

It's bloody amazing btw!

Beautiful People (one of the best British comedies of all time tbh)
Queer as Folk (just kinda seen as a niche show I guess because of the gays but it was excellent) (only saw the UK version sorry)
Top of the Lake (i know it got rave reviews and awards but absolutely no one I know watched it)
Getting On (same as above)
The Bridge (not quite as revered as the Killing but just as good really) (the original scandi versions obviously I'm not here for the remakes) (except The Tunnel which was nice)

Thumbs up
Justified and Person of Interest.

Justified really should have swept the Emmys and Golden Globes this year with it being its final season and Breaking Bad no longer being around, yet it didn't get a single nomination. Walton Goggins >>> Everyone that was nominated for Supporting Actor. Luckily Tarantino has noticed that and cast him in his last 2 films.

POI gets overlooked a lot just because of the network it's on, nobody (including myself most of the time) take CBS seriously. It's usually just procedural crap, but POI isn't owned by the network so is different to everything else they air... Which is also why the network treat it like **** and end it despite it getting better ratings than many of their other shows.

Omg yes

The second series of The Bridge was phenomenal, the finale is one of my favourite TV episodes.

Bump to add Black Sails. I'm halfway through the third season atm and it's by far one of the best shows I'm currently watching I think it gets less attention unfortunately because it didn't immediately hit its stride in the first season but from season 2 onwards it's been ridiculously good.

Also, The 100 (I assumed I'd mentioned it already). Gets tarred with that typical CW brush but it's so much better than most would expect. I was surprised by how dark it's willing to go and apart from the main protagonist you don't really feel that anyone else is safe which adds to the stakes, I love that it's prepared to defy expectations in big ways. Also got a lot of flack for a particular death last year which I do think was badly executed considering the character but the show is still great regardless of that misstep.

Vikings and Ray Donovan, I mean they aren't underrated in general but hardly anyone on here watches them and they're two of the best Series on the go atm imo
